Big-name country under wide-open Bruce-County skies. Jordan Davis, Tenille Townes, Owen Riegling, Josh Ross, Big Sugar, and more light up three charity-powered nights at Graceland festival grounds. Camping, food trucks, late-night beer garden, zero stress.

Look up! Monster show-kites, precision flyers, hands-on kids’ builds, live music and food vendors turn tiny Hopeville into Ontario’s sky-high spectacle. Free entry (pay-what-you-can), leashed pups welcome.

Slip back to Prohibition on a guided swamp walk where costumed storytellers spill tales of rum-runners, hidden stills and daring midnight runs through Canada’s largest hardwood swamp. Spots are limited; bring boots and curiosity.

Sleep under the stars, without giving up hot showers or Wi-Fi.

Back Forty’s year-round geodesic domes sit on a private 26-acre hillside outside Meaford, each with a king bed, kitchenette, ensuite bath, and your own hot tub (forest sauna on-site, too).

Hike Georgian Bay trails by day, stargaze through the dome’s skylight by night.

Fall weekends are already filling fast. Claim your dome now!

Our Community Calendar covers Grey & Bruce Counties. It’s a large area, so if we missed an event we are sorry, we will do better next time!

Our Community Calendar was getting a bit too enthusiastic. Turns out stuffing a week’s worth of local fun into one email makes for a very long scroll.

So we’ve given it its own space! Click the button below to check out the full lineup of events this week.

Friday night plans = solved.

Follow the gravel lane east of Lucknow and you’ll hit the Morrison family farm where a hand-built wood oven blazes from 4 – 8 pm every Friday night (and Saturday night until the end of the month).

Grab a “Sassy & Simple” pepperoni pie or the veggie-stacked “Farmer” (sweet corn + smoked shoulder bacon), pair it with a local cider from the on-site bar, then wander the gardens to meet the resident goats before sunset.

Zero reservations, just field-to-fire goodness. This is a must try for any pizza lover! Check them out at Music in the Fields this weekend!

Think “secret garden” meets mini-Versailles: a Georgian-Regency villa, hedge maze, koi pond, and ten acres of blow-your-camera-roll flower beds.

All dreamed up and hand-built by local artisan Barry More.

There’s no ticket booth; just drop $3 in the honesty box, grab the sketched map, and wander at your own pace.

Family-friendly, picnic-ready, and open daily May–October, 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
